"I've completed my doula training but not sure what to do next..."

That is the email I have received quite a few times in the last few months. From answering business questions to offering advocacy support for other doulas while they are at a birth, I have decided to offer a Doula Mentorship Program.

This Mentorship Program will further educate you on various aspects that will help you to become a more informed and well rounded doula. We will discuss birth related topics from the Evidence Based Birth® Higher Ed Program as well as business basics and principles to get you started the right way! This is a fun and interactive mentorship program where we will meet twice a month via zoom to go over what you have learned and to implement your new skills into your business.

I don't personally offer any hands on learning or shadowing because I am not currently attending any births, but if you live in the Central Kentucky area, I am happy to provide you with a list of doulas who have agreed to have newer doulas shadow them!​This program is for you if you:* Are recently a new doula* Needing more support in your doula business* Want additional education in being an awesome doula* Would like to join a community of amazing doulas who are already serving families* Ready for more one on one training and coaching

“Chanté is an amazing instructor and helped me to implement some great tools for my doula business! She offered suggestions and encouraged me to raise my prices to a more valuable rate. Students are in great hands and will learn so much about being a doula and business fundamentals as well. I highly approve this class!” ~ JoLynne P.

“This is a great first step. I met Chanté a few months after I became a doula and she has been nothing but an amazing teacher with coaching me on doula life and even allowing me to decompress after attending births. If you are seriously considering becoming a doula, check out her mentorship program!” ~ Anihhya T.

frequently asked questions...

A: The Doula Mentorship Program will accept applications in May 2020. Once accepted, the program is for one semester and runs from June - October.

Q: Do I have to shadow another doula to be in the program?

A: No, you don't but it gives you a more valuable hands on learning experience of how to handle various birth situations and extra training with comfort measures.

Q: I haven't completed a doula training yet. Can I still apply?

A: It is highly recommended you complete at least your doula training before applying for this mentorship program. Your doula training will give you more details on becoming and practicing as a doula. The mentorship program will build upon those skills. If you will be completing your doula training during the same time as this mentorship program, send me an email and we can discuss it on an individual basis.

Q: Are there scholarships opportunities available?

A: As long as there is a maternal health crisis for black and brown families, I will continue to do my part to provide scholarships to women of color who will be serving these families. Please email me at baby.dreamsmc@gmail.com for more details and pricing.

Q: Is there a refund policy?

A: All sales are final and there is no refund available due to the cost of having to pay upfront for portions of the Doula Mentorship Program.

“A woman giving birth to a child has pain because her time has come; but when her baby is born she forgets the anguish because of her joy that a child is born into the world.” ~ John 16:21

"Experience of the phenomenal capacity of our birthing body can give us an enduring sense of our own power as women. Birth is the beginning of life; the beginning of mothering, and of fathering. We all deserve a good beginning." ~ Sarah J. Buckley
